Hello,
Have a cable isp and pay for the lowest connection, 256Kb/s (bits) - 30KB/s
(bytes).
Always able to download at the connection speed purchased, 30 KB/s all sites.
Downloaded Apple Quicktime Viewer v7.0 ( 19MB) from the Apple site.
This is the only time and site that the following has happened.
The download speed, 467KB/s (bytes), this did not start then adjust to
256Kb/s. It stayed at the 467 KB/s and downloaded the complete file.
Question, Why is this site able to bypass the ISP cap of 256Kb/s?
Windows XPHome SP2, all security updates.
IE7 browser, all updates.
Thank you for replies.
take care.
